Well this is interesting

Look what Axl tweeted:

"axlrose:All upcoming Guns N' Roses dates are officially cancelled. Please contact your place of purchase for any refunds."

Way to go, Axl... Must be going into hiding again...

That SUCKS. I bet someone quit the band.

I'm betting it was either Ashba or Bumblefoot. Boy is Queenie gonna have a field day with this.... I can just hear it now...

[Bill Bailey]

Ashba tweeted after that tweet was posted that he was in the middle of hanging out with Axl and they were buying guns together, so it's not him. Maybe the lawsuit is taking a turn for the ugly or something?

The official GnR twitter says that they haven't had any confirmation from Axl yet:

We are looking into the tweet from the @AxlRose twitter account. Please keep with us here for official word.

..So there's a chance that Axl's account got hacked or something.

[Bill Bailey]

Unlike Axl's previous Twitter messages, which were posted using an iPhone, this one came via the "mobile web," suggesting that Rose's Twitter account could have been hacked.

MyGnr.com claims to have been contacted by GnR's management, confirming that it was hacked.

how typical

It happens. I'm sure Axl isn't too happy about this. I'm just glad things are getting all sorted out.

Guns N' Roses confirm gigs still on after Twitter hack
Axl Rose Guns 'n Roses are still playing Reading and Leeds say promoters

Reading and Leeds Festival have denied that headliners Guns N' Roses have pulled out of this month's event.

It was after singer Axl Rose's Twitter account was hacked with the message: "all upcoming Guns N' Roses dates are officially cancelled".

Festival bosses confirmed that the Reading and Leeds performances and an October arena tour will go ahead.

The misleading tweet, posted late on Sunday night also urged fans to return their tickets.

However, in a statement Festival Republic told Newsbeat: "(We) are informed by GN'R management that Guns N' Roses have NOT cancelled their performances at Reading & Leeds and that Axl Rose's Twitter account was hacked into and all claims of dates being cancelled are unfounded."

That means that the rockers' recently announced UK arena tour - their first in four years - will still go ahead.

The band are lined up to play London, Birmingham and Manchester in October, as well as other shows across Europe over the next three months.
